Sure, just do a lookup of some sort. I did this for a few files and just used a switch-case. Here's some sample code that I saved in a file called filelookup.cfm and include in the app page:
<cfswitch expression="#url.key#"> <cfcase value="87986"> <cfset filename = "Blank Building and Business Inventory"> <cfset fileextension = "mdb"> <cfset mimetype = "application/x-msaccess"> </cfcase> <cfcase value="87987"> <cfset filename = "DMA Business Owner Survey"> <cfset fileextension = "zip"> <cfset mimetype = "application/x-zip-compressed"> </cfcase> <cfcase value="87988"> <cfset filename = "DMA Consumer Survey"> <cfset fileextension = "zip"> <cfset mimetype = "application/x-zip-compressed"> </cfcase> <cfcase value="87989"> <cfset filename = "DMAsec9"> <cfset fileextension = "xls"> <cfset mimetype = "application/x-msexcel"> </cfcase> <cfdefaultcase> <!---It's none of the acceptable files---> <cflocation url="http://www.example.com";> where's url.file? </cfdefaultcase> </cfswitch> -Kevin > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, April 04, 2003 1:19 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: cfcontent and URL Variables > > > Sorry for all the CF posts lately, I just don't have the patience for > cf-talk and all the noise :) > > I am spitting out pdf files using cfcontent.
